MITCalc Bolted connection design
Prestressed bolt connection
The calculation is designed for a geometrical design and strength check of a prestressed bolt connection, loaded by static or cyclic loading resp., acting both in the axis of the bolt and in the plane of the connected parts. The application solves the following tasks:
- Automatic design of a connection bolt of standard design.
- Calculation and check of connections fitted with special shanks.
- Design and calculation of necessary mounting prestressing of the connection and fastening torque.
- Calculation of force conditions of a loaded connection.
- Static and dynamic strength check.
- Calculation of joint parameters for a specific working temperature.
- The application includes a table of commonly used materials of bolts according to ISO, EN, SAE and ASTM, and a selection of materials of the connected parts according to AISI/SAE/ASTM, ISO, EN a DIN and others.
- Support of 2D CAD systems.
The calculations use data, procedures, algorithms and data from specialized literature and standards ANSI, ISO, EN, DIN.
